The Potomac Flsherles.-As usual at
this season there is considerable activity at the
fishing shores along the Potomac. The shores
GOV operated are ufagh fewer IN num1er than
they were only few years ago, as one by one
the different landings have become uuprofia-
bic aud then abandoned The FIRST shore on
the Virginia side 10 be operated this year Is
Ferry landing, once noted fishery. II will
be operated the present season by its owner,
VIM. Neizey, Of Washington, who has fshed
It for a number Of years. The shore requires
600 tathoms Of net, and is hared By steam
power and requires about 60 men. The sec
oud fishery on the same side is Stony Point
operated by the same party. This shore re-
quires 500 fathoms Of net, Is hauled by steam
power, and requires about IS men. The next
IL known as the Clifton fishery, and is operated
by its owner, Mr.. Waller, with 900 fathoms
Of net, hauled by horse power, attached to
capstsndS This landing EMPLOYS 80 men,
Then comes the Gums, which is being fshe1
this wear by Messrs. Ballenger and Smith, Of
this city. This shore requires 900 fathOms
Of net hauled by horse power, and about 80
men. And last Of all on the Virginia side is
Marlboro Point, iishcd by Mrssrs Golden Of
Washington, and Ewing OF Hartford county,
Nd THIS shore uses 600 fathoms Of net,
hauled By horse power, aud requires about
80 men. The Marlboro fishery is about 45
miles down the Potomac. The river below
this point to the mouth is fshed with pcund
and gill nets only.
The only fishery on the Maryland side is
the once celebrated fishery known as Chap
man Point. This property has changed hands
lately, and it is doubtful II the shore will be
fished this coming season, as fishing with
haul scines is uncertain and attended with
much expense. Among the shores on the Vir-
CHINA side that will not be fshed this season
are the once celebrated shad shore known as
the White House, and Freeslone Point, anoth-
er shore odce famous, which rented as late as
1886 for 81 900, but has been abandoned on
account Of the scarcity Of Ssh. The same
state OF affairs exists on the Maryland side OF
the river from the same cause. There are
many valuable shores on both sides which a
teT years ago brought large sums annually
that arc now abandoned On the Maryland
side, under this head, come Monkeys, Bry-
ants, GreeIway, Pomonkey, Chapmsn's
Point, Gut Landing Stump Neck, Budd's
or y and.msny others OF less note.-Alexan-
dria Gazette
The Gazette is in error as TO the Chapman
landing We are informed it will be fshed
this season as usual and that from the prep
arations made quito an extensive business is
expected to Le done by the new proprietor Mr.
Gale.

Sowing MilIet A Southern agricu

Sowing Millet - A Southern agricultu-
raj paper gives the following views Of the
value OF Hungarian grass or millet; HungS-
rian grass or milet, if well grown, cut early
and properly cured, furnishes a quality Of
hay that compares mvorably with any of the
grasses ordinarily grown for cattle-feeding =
warm sandy lotm is best adapted 70 the
cultivation of millet hut any good corn land
will yield good crops it the seed is Sown after
the soil is thoroughly warmed by the summer
heat. The seed should never be sown in ear
ly spring, as milet will not grow in cold
spring or autumn Weather. Grass land, ttom
which the hay has been secured, may produce
a crop Of millet the same year if the plowing
and cultivation is thorough and enough ma
nure is applied TO cause rapid growth
Lands httle too vet for handling in spring
may grow millet well in midsummer Less
manure is required than for some other crops,
MS millet IS a very vigorous grower, but for
this reason it exhaustS the land and renders
liberal manuring necessary for the succeeding
crops bushel Of seed per acre is bet e,
than q less quantity, simply il the crop is to
be grown for hay. Ii for seed, one or two
pecks may be enough. For hay it should be
cut MS soon as fully grown, or Just as soon as il
Is coming into bloom. We do not recon-.
mend it good crop to seed with timothy
or other grasses for permanent moving, I'M
less the millet is sown very thinly for raising
seed. II sowu thick it will cover the ground
